Mark Hancock and I are excited about this new conference (a retreat, really …). Not only are we offering time to learn and meet with editors and agents, we’re offering excellent praise and worship lead by Robert Gorini, time for writing and resting or walking along the trails, and time for networking with other fabulous writers like yourself.

Another offer of NGCWC is the time for critiques. NGCWC’s critique sessions run differently than FCWC’s. For one, FCWC critique sessions run the entire continuing class time. But at NGCWC, we’re offering five opportunities for critique. Each session is led by multiple-award winning author Lindsey Brackett. Lindsey also serves in leadership at Word Weavers International.

Here’s how the NGCWC critique sessions work:

There are five sessions:

Friday, August 24, 2018 10:00 a.m. – Noon

Friday, August 24, 2018 1:30 p.m. – 3:30 p.m.

Saturday, August 25, 2018 10:00 a.m. – Noon

Saturday, August 25, 2018 1:30 – 3:30 p.m.

Sunday, August 26, 2018 9:00 – 10:50

There is a limit of SIX per session (although we will probably cap the Sunday session at five).

To pre-register (which is required), email us at [email protected]with CRITIQUE SESSION in the subject line, and then tell us your first, second, and third preference (we suggest you look at the schedule at the website to determine which classes you’ll miss by signing up). Where you are placed is determined by a first come/first serve basis. You will be asked not to set any appointments during this time as well so as not to interrupt the flow of the session.
